Kyoko Saito: Her exemplary 29th post....

 

 Have said it before which is that it seems she should have so many more than 29 solo posts but that number is correct. In 2021 Kyoko had eight posts and finished in the sixth position on the yearly faves list. She just had two posts after July so instead of battling for the top spot she dropped down and can she improve her position this year? I would say yes as it's the opposite of 2021 as she's had a busier second half of the year and this is her fourth post in ten weeks. Even with a strong next few months don't think Kyoko can overcome the current #1 who is pulling away from the pack and will have a post tomorrow. However she does have an excellent shot as being number two as many others have fallen to the wayside the last few months, I'd love to see her finish that high.

 What could help Kyoko in getting to the #2 spot is that she'll be the center for Hina's next single that comes out on October 26th. Hopefully that'll mean a few more mag spreads, some interviews and whatever else to promote the single. Just did a post for her two weeks ago which usually means there isn't time for many new things to take place. However do have close to fifty new pics for today with the first batch being these recent IG pics, bottom ones were from her 25th birthday.

 On October 8th Kyoko and seven other Hina members will be at the Autumn 'Girls Award' show so her next post should be shortly after that along with a few posts for some other members. This will only be the fourth time Kyoko has been at a GA show as they don't hold nearly as many as 'Tokyo Girls Collection' does and she's been at about twenty of them. On May 14th of this year she did appear at the Spring 'Girls Award' show and did do a post for it. Have a batch of pics from the show with over half of them not being in that other post.

 Few recent modeling pics from the ar magazine site but there's never enough of them....

 October 8th is when Hina's eighth single will be released, title of the main song is "Tsuki to Hoshi ga Odoru Midnight" and as many fans know for the first time Kyoko will have the center position. Have listened to the song five times and it's getting better with each listen, it's a bit more upbeat than most of the group's other singles. Reminds me a bit of a Nogi song from their 2017-19 period and the second half of the song is better than the first. Have the PV for the song after these pics of Kyoko that were from the making of the video.

 

 Already getting close to the end, lot of new pics but not many activities. Here's a large set of Kyoko's outtake pics which is bigger than the spread and is from the.....

 .... September 22nd issue of Weekly Shonen Champion, the spread is just ten pages but there's nineteen outtake pics. Kyoko appears in this magazine so often, bet she's had the cover at least eight times. No new Kyoko solo videos and that happens 98% of the time for all Hina/Keya member's posts. So after the pics have an older CM from three years ago for Mechakari.
